Discussion
PABox HTML Injection Vulnerability
paBox is reportedly affected by a HTML injection vulnerability. This issue is due to the application failing to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in dynamically generated content.
The attacker-supplied HTML and script code would be able to access properties of the site, potentially allowing for theft of cookie-based authentication credentials. An attacker could also exploit this issue to control how the site is rendered to the user; other attacks are also possible.
This vulnerability is reported to affect paBox version 1.6.
paBox version 2.0 does not appear to be affected by this vulnerability; this has not been confirmed by the vendor.
